We hear your cry for justice and protection, and we stand with you in fervent prayer before the throne of grace. The situation you describe is deeply troubling, as Scripture makes clear that God hates oppression and injustice. The Psalmist declares, *"The LORD works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed"* (Psalm 103:6 WEB). We rebuke the spirit of retaliation and wickedness that has taken root in your managers, for the Word warns, *"Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write oppressive decrees"* (Isaiah 10:1 WEB).
First, we must address the foundation of your plea. You invoked the blood of Jesus Christ, and we affirm that it is only through His name and His sacrifice that we have access to the Father. Jesus Himself said, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me"* (John 14:6 WEB). There is no other name by which we are saved or delivered (Acts 4:12). We pray that you know Jesus not just as a name to call upon in distress, but as your Lord and Savior, the One who bore your sins on the cross so that you might have eternal life and victory over every trial.
Now, we lift your situation to the Lord with boldness, for He is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother or sister who is facing unjust treatment and the threat of eviction. You see the heart of these managers and the wickedness that drives their actions. We ask that You break their schemes and frustrate their plans, Lord. Let their unjust actions be exposed, and let Your justice prevail. *"The LORD is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who know Your name put their trust in You, for You, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You"* (Psalm 9:9-10 WEB).
We pray for provision and protection over this home. Father, You are the One who opens doors no one can shut and shuts doors no one can open (Revelation 3:7). If it is Your will that they remain in this home, we ask that You make a way where there seems to be no way. Provide the resources needed to meet the unjust demands, or intervene in such a way that the managers are compelled to act with fairness. *"And my God will supply every need of yours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:19 WEB).
We also rebuke the spirit of fear that may be trying to take hold. God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). We declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against you in judgment, you shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We stand on Your promise that You will never leave nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5).
In addition to praying for deliverance, we encourage you to seek wise counsel. Proverbs 15:22 says, *"Without counsel, plans fail, but with many advisers, they succeed."* Reach out to local legal aid organizations, church leaders, or trusted believers who may be able to offer guidance or assistance. Document every instance of harassment or unjust action, as this may be necessary if the situation escalates.
Father, we also pray for the hearts of these managers. While their actions are evil, we know that no one is beyond Your reach. Soften their hearts, Lord, and convict them of their wrongdoing. Let them see the error of their ways and turn from their wickedness. *"Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing"* (1 Peter 3:9 WEB). We ask that You would either change their hearts or remove them from their positions of authority over Your child.
Lastly, we pray for peace in the midst of this storm. May you experience the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guarding your heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6).
We declare that this trial will not break you but will instead draw you closer to the Lord. May you emerge from this situation with a deeper faith, a stronger testimony, and a greater reliance on God’s unfailing love. We stand with you in agreement, believing that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us (Ephesians 3:20). In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
